French shipping company CMA CGM announced that due to the abnormally low water levels of the Rhine and other European rivers, inland waterway transport is severely affected, and an "Inland Emergency Transport Fee" will be levied on goods transported through three ports. CMA CGM stated that the persistently low water levels have led to reduced inland barge transport capacity, port congestion, longer cargo dwell times at docks, and increased operating costs. This emergency surcharge will apply to all inland transport methods passing through the aforementioned three ports. The recent prolonged high temperatures and drought in many parts of Europe, coupled with the dropping Rhine River water level, has already impacted shipping and energy supplies. The Rhine River is one of Europes most important inland waterways, connecting several countries including the Netherlands, Germany, France, and Switzerland.

Crypto outlet CoinDesk Inc is exploring a full or partial sale of its business and has hired investment bank Lazard Ltd to lead the process, the media company’s chief executive said on Wednesday.


The crypto industry is going through one of its worst phases, with prices of major tokens at two-year lows and a string of bankruptcy filings from top players.


“My goal in hiring Lazard is to explore various options to attract growth capital to the CoinDesk business, which may include a partial or full sale,” CEO Kevin Worth told Reuters in a statement.


The development comes amid an industry turmoil, which began with the crash of stable coins TerraUSD and Luna early last year.


More recently, top crypto exchange FTX filed for bankruptcy, while publicly traded Coinbase Global Inc laid off a fifth of its workforce after slashing over 1,000 jobs last year.


New York-based CoinDesk launched in 2013 to track Bitcoin, but the platform has emerged as a key source of news and pricing benchmarks for the entire range of crypto currencies.


The company is wholly owned by crypto-focused venture capital firm Digital Currency Group, which also has interest in Coinbase, according to its website.
